History
Election(s)2017

The current ministry of the government of Great Nortend, the 3rd Limmes Ministry, was formed on the 1st of April, 2017 after Alexander II invited The Duke of Limmes to reform government following the Coalition of the Company of Scodeliers and the Conservative Party expansion of its majority in the Houses of Commons following the 2017 general election. There were no major changes in the composition of the Cabinet, although some junior minister positions were reshuffled.

Cabinet

The Cabinet serves as the main decision-making body of the Erbonian Government. It is constituted as a committee of the Privy Council, and by convention includes only those members thereof currently sitting in Parliament or entitled to do so. The Cabinet is headed by the Lord High Treasurer, primus inter pares holding the informal position of Prime Minister.

The Officers of State hold seats in Cabinet ex officio; however, it is rare for the Lords High Steuard, Admiral, Constable and Chamberlain to sit in Cabinet meetings, owing to their mostly ceremonial or administrative roles.
